Award-winning author Tara Kuther presents Lifespan Development in Context, Second Edition, a topically oriented edition of her bestselling text that provides a panoramic view of the many influences that shape human development. Kuthers student-friendly narrative illustrates how the places, sociocultural envi­ronments, and ways in which we are raised influence who we become and how we grow and change throughout our lives. Three core themes resonate throughout each chapter and across each developmental domain and topic: the centrality of context, the importance of research, and the applied value of developmental science. Foundational theories and classic studies are woven together with contemporary research and culturally diverse perspectives for a full, updated introduction to the field that is both comprehensive and concise. Case studies, real-world applications, and video examples ignite critical thinking and class discussion, ensuring students have the tools they need to apply course concepts to their lives and future careers.
